All,

I wonder then if everything marked as "unstable, unreleased" should be 
moved to something like:

http://scm.dspace.org/svn/repo/sandbox/modules/

OR, if we wanted to keep all the "Modules" in one SVN area, we could 
flip the path around into something like:

http://scm.dspace.org/svn/repo/modules/sandbox/

This would give us a specific SandBox area which is only for Maven 
Modules (similar to how there is a specific Sandbox area for GSoC at 
/sandbox/gsoc/).

I, personally, would also be tempted to move the MIT/@mire specific 
projects to another location (or rename them somehow). I see those as 
"third-party" modules, which haven't been formally accepted/adopted by 
the Committers Group (even though a few committers may have worked on 
them, we've never voted to adopt them, as far as I'm aware). So, those 
could be moved to something like:

http://scm.dspace.org/svn/repo/modules/thirdparty/

Or if people don't like the term "thirdparty", they could be 
/modules/incubator/ or /modules/extensions/ or something else that 
implies they are not centrally supported by the Committers, but that 
they still may be stable or supported by another entity.

Modules which are then "officially supported" by the Committers could 
just remain in:
http://scm.dspace.org/svn/repo/modules/

(Or if we really wanted to, we could create a sub-directory called 
/modules/supported/ or /modules/official/)

In this way, the Modules workflow could look something like this:
(1) New modules always start in "Sandbox" area
(2) Once they are stable and/or released, they can ask to move to 
"ThirdParty"/"Incubator" area, OR
(3) They can also ask to be fully endorsed/supported by the Committers 
Group. If they are, they would move to the "Official"/"Supported" area. 
  Otherwise, they could remain in the "ThirdParty" area for as long as 
they wanted to, and continue to perform all their releases from that 
location.

(SIDENOTE: Obviously, if we then eventually move to GitHub, then the 
"SandBox" area is not as necessary anymore. But, we still may want to 
bring forward the idea of the "Official"/"Supported" area, to highlight 
those modules which are officially supported by the Committers Group.)

All of the data generated in your IT infrastructure is seriously valuable.
Why? It contains a definitive record of application performance, security 
threats, fraudulent activity, and more. Splunk takes this data and makes 
sense of it. IT sense. And common sense.
